One of the taller professional riders at 6’3”, Hincapie is known as “Big George” by the peloton. Long a key domestique on Lance Armstrong’s US Postal squad, George Hincapie is riding in his 16th Tour de France – tying the record for the most number of Tours ridden by one cyclist. He’s not a yellow jersey contender, but will be a workhorse for Cadel Evans, BMC’s Australian team leader.
Hincapie is also a five-time Olympian and was rocking the global cycling scene even as a junior in the '80s, when some of today's best cyclists were barely out of diapers. You can read his full bio on his official website.
